About St Davids Residential Care Home
St Davids Residential Care Home provides residential care in Great Yarmouth for older people, including people living with dementia. We offer permanent places and shorter respite stays. We should be plain about our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, which is requires improvement. We would rather tell you ourselves than leave you to find it elsewhere. We know which areas were identified and there is a clear programme of work under way, with changes already made to staff supervision and training, to how care is recorded, and to how families are involved in decisions. Please ask us about it when you come, and we will show you what has changed and what is still in hand. The daily work of the home continues as it should: careful help with washing and dressing, meals cooked here, attention to nutrition, skin and mobility, safe management of medication, and time spent with people rather than only on tasks. For those living with dementia we keep the routine steady and the faces familiar, because that is what genuinely settles a day. Visitors are welcome and we would always rather hear a concern early. Please come and see us and ask whatever you need to ask.
